surely if shai tatum or jokic lead in all those categories u wouldn’t say that. what is a good indicator of defense for you? I also mentioned iso pts allowed pp luka is also top 11 in rim defensive fg% amongst non centers

I think its just he is european white they dont want to acknowledge his greatness but i dont even like that argument because ive seen Jokic get alot of props Luka has a tough road ahead of him because even if he wins a championship that will be nowhere near getting him into conversations of actually being up there with MJ Kobe Lebron due to the stupid ring criteria regardless of if his skill actually surpasses them on certain aspects. Luka was also asked about Lebrons scoring record he said no way he plays that long.

Luka is at 12k points Lebrons at 40k points its not feasible in my eyes at all but who knows

​@@deathitself6985Luka doesn't know how long he will play. I'm sure he said that just to be nice. Nobody does. But if he has no career ending injuries, it's not impossible.

There is like zero chance Luka comes close to the scoring record. Not only does he have to play nearly 20 years, but he has to play at a high level for at least 15+ years.

@MacMittens-js9mb Luka scores more points in less time than LeBron. Even if he doesn't break it he will be a better player than LeBron ever was.

Ive seen him get a broken nose on a shot and still didn't get the foul called. Luka literally gets his whipped every game and only averages 8 freethrows per game. Its ridiculous the amount of people that hate on him. At the very worst he's the 3rd best player in the nba. I think he's #2 behind Joker.

@bigred9991 he would average over 50 points if he gets he's foul called.

The only people who say any of those negative comments just don’t watch mavs ball. Even last year, Luka made it his business to lock in on the defensive side. He put so much effort that he was starting his own DPOY narrative as a joke. He played both sides the entire second half of the season for sure and all the way thru the playoffs. He was a top 10 defender at his position over that second half run. He went thru the entire playoffs on one leg and the ONLY time people had negative comments on his defense was against the Celtics and the only 5 out offense he faced. Not to mention the rest of his team folded against that same team leaving Luka as literally the ONLY offensive option. To be drained is not an excuse I’m making but it’s the truth. It was his first time going that far and he carried that yea the entire way even with Kai as his second help. In the okc series it was PJ that stepped up next to Luka and lively held it down the whole way. Kai showed vs the wolves mainly. Luka didn’t miss a game offensively even in his down games and he went hard on the defensive end the whole way. He was a turn style vs the one team with 5 playmakers on the floor, who run the floor top speed and shoot the light out behind the arc. He still balled offensively but didn’t have the gas in the end. Everyone learns that lesson, and again, he was on ONE LEG the entire playoffs and by the time he got to the finals he was getting shots in both knees to play. Throughout the playoffs, opposing defenders were literally targeting his injured knee. I’m glad someone finally made this video and stopped following the narrative

Those mavs rosters were the worst in the nba. I watched every game and mavs fans were so delusional about what those teams were (a g league team). Just think as soon as they traded for role guys from bad teams they went to the finals, in gafford and Washington. They had guys like djj who was barely in the nba just the season b4 starting on a finals team

⁠@@kevinhowe3280and they only see KP and Brunson to say he cant win even with those 2 players.

@darrylcortez8263 yeah Brunson wasn't even that good on the mavs. He was coming into his own as a nba player and actually said watching luka made him question if he even belonged in the nba. Porzingis was purposely sabotaging the team because he was butt hurt over not getting post ups. Lol now he's the 5th man on a Boston team

@ and people said brunson was being held back by Luka. and that Celtics team won how many games did KP play in the playoffs?

He was to good to fast

Its because he's not from America.

His career stats are better than Lebrons. Luka hit is prime immediately ​@@anniecharbonneau6657

@@bigred9991 Neither are Jokic, Giannis, and Shai. Find a better argument.

Literally…. which is why i also included the deflections and points off of those turnovers

You can FEEL the cope sweat dripping down at this point😅😅

I can see the argument but i hate it when its the same people giving sga all defense team nods last year because he had alot of steals now saying it doesnt matter

@@aw3some470 funny how that works, isn’t it? Let’s also not forget who stonewalled and blocked SGA to clinch the playoff series last season….yeah, that was Luka, too.

Luka also gets blocks. Haters don't watch Mavs.

100% He started off slow and took many bad shots. The team needs him at his best and when hes most confident, so the only solution to get him off of a slump was to make him shoot over and over till he figured it out.But yes, major criticisms at the beggining of the season (around first 10 games) were super fair considering the high standards he has set

I think you have it correct. I am a fan and I agree with you. None the less, if he can guard the worst player on the other teams offence, and get the rebounds and steals, we have to consider that it an improved defense. I think the easiest stat is L10. They are 8 and 2 their last 10 games. Including an embarrassing loss to the Thunder on an extended road trip. The Thunder just got a taste of the same thing from the Bucks. PJ is some kind of player on a quality team that I'm enjoying again this year. And if Clay can become consistent, WOW. A very enjoyable team over all that has proven that they can over achieve while making it to the finals last year. I enjoy your take, and consider it very reasonable. Good job!

Yea and that was 10 games coming off an injury

Thank you so much! Nothing worse than putting a player down because hes so good

theres always time if its him

Because there’s lots of us that know these things, but trying to explain it to haters that parrot narratives and false excuses is like explaining it to a brick wall. They don’t WANT it to be true, so there’s no convincing them. Thank you for the facts and the video!💙

Numbers arent luck either hes putting in work but they wont talk ab it

@WalkinWhiskey and the crazy things is, there's many more years to come. He's on pace to beat all sorts of records.

​​@@prepare4storms807Funny you should say that because against GSW the other day he broke another one lol. Only 3 players have scored 45-10-10 or more with 2 blocks and 3 steals. Micheal Jordan, Jokic once, and now Luka. Players just doesn't do this almost never. This is why the best players are Jokic and Luka.

I always try to keep it unbiased too💪 just straight numbers

Straight from the NBA database too 💪

Thank you so much! I spent like 6 hours doing research digging up the ugly numbers. But they’re real and the sources are available to the public

I agree

THANK YOU SO MUCH!!!!

THANK YOU

Correct, sharing the ball more and doesn’t need to carry a heavy load

His numbers will get back up just started slow

​@@Cutedoggo2 His numbers dont even need to come up. We've got a TON of options. The team is so deep right now that even with Hardy and Maxi out, we can field a solid lineup that's not gonna lose games. Our starting 5 is as good as anyone in the NBA, and our next 5 dudes off the bench would still compete with Trailblazers/Jazz/Raptors starting 5. Literally everyone in dallas' starting 5 (6, since lively and gafford swap a lot) is a PROBLEM, and all that means is luka doesnt NEED to be the driver of the team. The talk show narratives wont stop, even if his numbers come up, so the only thing the mavs can do is the same thing the nuggets did. Just win. Winning will force people to acknowledge what is plain to see if you were just to watch the games.

For sure, i think the Only thing that should go up is efficiency and assists. Everything else would be to show off, hes doing good right now and the team is winning

@@reikoshea sadly the clippers game did not show that

Fr. the respect wont be earned in the reg, only in the post season for his standards

Lets see if i get motivated 💪 Thank you so much bro

Peace from Puerto Rico!!!🫶
